CSS Width Help please
Hey clever people,
Just after a little bit of help...
On my site here where the middle section is the gap between the navigation area and the middle section is quite small (I've done that and that's how I want it..) but I can't seem to find the CSS to make it longer width ways/make the gap between the middle section and the right hand side sidebar smaller (the same width as the other side).
I think it has something to do with this part of CSS?? But I've been playing with it and nothing seems to change :S
Code:.content1 {float: left; width: 428px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 10px; color: rgb(0,0,0);} .content1-container {clear: both; float: left; width: 408px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; padding: 0px;} .content1-container-1col {overflow: hidden; width: 408px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;}
Code:

change the paddings on .content1 so that left and right padding are the same;
Code:.content1 {float: left; width: 428px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; color: rgb(0,0,0);}
You can not say you know how to do something, until you can teach it to someone else.

I forgot to mention that the 'test-links' target in the Makefile is hosed as well. I can't help but think the last change fixed *something*, but broke more somethings along the way. I'm going to revert the change and see if things work okay. If things do work okay, we'll figure it out how to do what was desired in the first place, without breaking things. If things don't work okay after reverting the change, we'll put the change back in and fix whatever it is that is broken. I remember the change and the discussion. It was because the book would validate every time, and the change was supposed to make it so that it only validates if there's been changes to the XML. Since I don't use the Makefile, and my scripts have been doing what this change does from the beginning, I didn't even think about it. But now that there is identified breakage, we need to stop and fix it. -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.22] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 126.96.36.199 i686] 18:15:01 up 83 days, 9:03, 1 user, load average: 1.76, 1.37, 0.83

I have an '02 Mazda B2300 truck. (Basically a Ford Ranger)
The coolant temperature gauge has started to work intermittently. It reads accurately but then just cuts out and reads nothing. Sometimes it'll flutter up and down. I'm assuming/hoping it's just a sensor. My question is, where is the sensor for coolant temperature? I've looked and can't seem to find it. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Its usually near the thermostat, but I don't know about the Mazda truck. Look around where the upper radiator hose connects to the engine,and/or the hot side heater hose. |
- Posted by poohbear2767 (My Page) on Mon, May 19, 08 at 18:39
This may or not be helpful. But it can't hurt. Check the coolant level in the radiator. If the coolant level gets below the level of the sensor, it can cause the guage to have oddball readings. May not be the case here, but it can't hurt to check. Check the coolant level in the radiator, not just the overflow tank. Pooh Bear |

Funny thing is, my rad has no spot to fill it. It appears the only place to add fluid would be into the reservoir. The rad has no actual cap on it. How would I ever fill a new one if I replaced it? weird. |
Some engines have a fill cap at the thermostat housing. this doesn't permit a complete fill, but may be enough to fill the engine head. When there is no filler cap a the highest point in the coolanst system, the system is filled by removing the upper radiator hose and filling through the upended hose. You may have to crack open the cap at the thermostat housing (if present) to vent air. When system is full, close the caps, reattach the hose, and fill the overflow bottle to half full, then start the engine. After the engine warms, shut down and cool to suck fluid from the overf;ow bottle. It may require 3 thermal cycles before the system is completely filled. Refill the overflow bottle as needed. If you find no filler cap, check the overflow bottle. It may have a pressure cap and seal with relief valve. There has to be a relief valve in the system somewhere to limit the pressure in the coolant system. |

Obama in Indian country
President Obama on Friday became only the third U.S. sitting president in eight decades to set foot in Indian Country, encountering both the wonder of Native American culture and the struggle of tribal life on a breeze-whipped afternoon in the prairie. Amid snapping flags and colorful, befeathered dancers, Obama declared that there was more the U.S. could do to help Native Americans.

Can A Modular Building Be Remodeled?
A traditional building renovation can be a big undertaking. Not only does it mean months of planning and design for the remodel itself, but it also means making arrangements for displaced workers, and dealing with site disruption, which will go on for months.
When it comes to initial building, modular construction is generally faster and more efficient than traditional construction, giving businesses a greater return on their investment. Yet, does the same hold true when it comes to a remodel?
Greater Flexibility for Remodels
Any building is subject to wear and tear as the years go on, and modular buildings are no different. After several years of steady traffic, a permanent modular building will Read more
Myth or Reality: Are Modular Buildings Lower in Quality?
There's no shortage of misconceptions about modular construction. Some believe that because modular buildings are constructed in a factory, instead of at the construction site, they don't offer the same quality, versatility, or architectural appeal of traditional construction.
We've highlighted the five most common myths of modular construction in a previous post, addressing such issues as the permanence, sustainability, and visual appeal of modular buildings. However, some continue to pose the question, so it's worth delving into this myth more deeply to show it's simply not true.
Myth: Modular buildings are low in quality.
Reality: Modular buildings are constructed in a factory under strict quality and environmental controls. Every cut and connection is inspected, tested and confirmed to Read more

ModSpace Returns to the Final Four
A new slate of teams will battle in the Final Four to win this year's national collegiate basketball title, but one familiar team is back in force. It's ModSpace, and this year we're surrounding Reunion Park in Dallas with mobile offices and ModSafe portable storage units to assist Turner Sports with its production of the NCAA Finals and the March Madness Music Festival.
When the teams square off at the Big Dance this weekend, the ModSpace team will be behind the scenes helping production crews pull off one of the greatest spectacles in sports.
UConn, Kentucky, Florida or Wisconsin. Which is your pick to win it all this year?
Battleships and Construction Offices Together in Pearl Harbor
No organization in the world is more mobile than the United States Navy. So, naturally we were intrigued by this scene that shows their ships behind a trio of ModSpace mobile offices.The three large buildings are the land-based field headquarters for the construction of the Honolulu Authority for Rapid Transportation's (HART) new maintenance and storage facility in Pearl Harbor.
Building in the Hawaiian Islands is never easy. ModSpace shipped 20 modular units on a barge to the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Upon arrival in Pearl Harbor, the units were connected and built out to make two eight-unit and one four-unit complexes. The three construction offices were ready in 20 days and will remain in place for the duration of the two-year infrastructure project.
For our part it's just cool seeing these mobile offices set against a backdrop of a Navy destroyers and one huge aircraft carrier.

Michael K. Williams May Force You to See 'RoboCop' Despite Your Protests
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on August 7, 2012 | Comments (1)When you take all of the distaste for remakes and reboots that's out there and add it with the love that people have for Paul Verhoeven's 1987 film RoboCop, it adds up to a situation where not very many people are looking forward to José Padilha's upcoming re-do of the material. And yet, with every casting announcement that this new RoboCop makes, it's becoming harder and harder to not be at least a little excited about its possibilities. First off, Padilha cast an on-the-rise young actor who's done nothing but impress so far named Joel Kinnaman in the title role. Then he systematically surrounded his star with supporting names that everyone loves, like Gary Oldman, Samuel L. Jackson, Hugh Laurie, Abbie Cornish, Jay Baruchel, and Jackie Earle Haley. It would be hard to sneeze at that cast no matter what they were being assembled for, but get them all together for a post-apocalyptic tale of robot cops versus violent street gangs and evil corporations, and it's not too difficult to start forgetting how much you dislike all of the remakes going on in Hollywood. I don't know how they get ya, but that's how they get ya.

Language Maps
PrintMaps showing the locations of language homelands are available for most countries of the world. Most of the maps make use of polygons to show the approximate boundaries of the language groups. No claim is made for precision in the placement of these boundaries, which in many instances overlap with those of other languages. Reference numbers are used on some maps where space does not allow the placement of language names. For some maps where the language boundaries are not known, the names or numbers alone appear.
The earliest maps in Ethnologue were developed as part of the Language Mapping Project carried out jointly with Global Mapping International (GMI). For the 16th edition, all of the maps were redrawn with a new and clearer design. We took advantage of the capabilities afforded to us by a new generation of software to improve the way that we show the family association of each language and the overlap of languages. A greater level of geographic detail is now included in the maps to aid in the location of languages within countries. All of the maps in this edition were created using ArcGIS® software by Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (Esri®). ArcGIS® and ArcMap™ are the intellectual property of Esri® and are used herein under license. For more information about Esri® software, please visit www.esri.com.
The maps are drawn using the Digital Chart of the World as the underlying geographic database which has a finer level of resolution than the base map used in editions prior to the 16th. In that edition, all the language polygons were repositioned to fit the greater detail of geographic features offered by that new database. This is an ongoing process and we continue to improve the accuracy and precision with which the language areas are plotted particularly with the increased use of location data collected by GPS units which enables locations to be plotted directly into the existing databases. The complete geographic database used to produce these maps (including the language polygons) is available in a product jointly published with GMI named the World Language Mapping System; see http://www.gmi.org/wlms/.
For the 17th edition we have continued to expand the list of countries for which maps are provided. Most notably, in the 17th edition, maps of India and Myanmar have been included for the first time.
African equatorial countries use the Sinusoidal projection. Other equatorial countries use the Mercator (cylindrical) projection. Maps of countries in higher latitudes use the Lambert Conformal Conic projection.
As with all of the content of the Ethnologue, no political statement is intended by the identification of any territory separately in a map or in the language listings nor by the placement of any boundary lines for any languages or countries on any map.

Most tankless pancake air compressors have difficulty if not unable to drive air tools or paint sprayers. Driving an air tool or spraying paint require steady and regulated flow of air that is not pulsating. The FP2028 one gallon air compressor is designed to address that same issue. Imagine the wide array of applications that become possible just for having that extra reservoir of compressed air.
This small but versatile air compressor can be left plugged in to an AC outlet as it will automatically cycles on and off when air is depleted. In another word, If the air compressor is left in the on position and air is depleted from the tank by use of a tire chuck, tool, etc., the compressor will restart at its preset "cut-in" pressure(100PSI). When a tool is being used continuously, the FP2028 will cycle on and off automatically.

China house prices rise in Dec, first year-on-year increase in 9 months
Published on Jan 4, 2013 12:19 PM
BEIJING (AFP) - China's home prices recorded their first year-on-year increase in nine months in December, an independent survey showed on Friday, but it said a huge rebound nationally was unlikely.
The cost of a new home in 100 major cities averaged 9,715 yuan (S$1,926) per square metre last month, up a marginal 0.03 per cent from December 2011, the China Index Academy (CIA) said.
Prices rose 0.23 per cent from November, the seventh consecutive monthly rise, it said in a statement.
Property costs are a key social issue in China, where millions of would-be buyers have been priced out of the market, fuelling resentment.

You can't prevent them but once the groundcover becomes well established, it should significantly reduce their occurrence. In the meantime, you will have to remove them manually. |
- Posted by gardenmaven Z5 MI (My Page) on Sun, Jul 13, 08 at 8:52
You will have to have to weed more during the time it takes to get the ground covers established. Mulching between the plants helps too. |

I have one in mind. I wasn't there, but my friends told me the story. They were basically partying at home and one of them scored a chick. He went to her place and started to do what a girl and a guy do, when the boyfriend of the girl got there and started to beat my friend. He kicked him out with only his shorts and shoes. After that, he went to where he was supposed to stay and discovered that he was locked outside with no key, no phone -- nothing. So he decided to go to my place a few miles away, as it's always an open house. He hitchhiked and a guy took him in, thinking he was so miserable. This time, he found that my door was locked too, so he was trapped outside once again and could only get in next door, which was the laundry room. The only clothes he could find were my mom's pajamas! He put them on and took the bus back to one of my friend's places, where he could finally get in 'cause the parents were going to work.

Late Effects of the Special Senses
Children treated for malignancies may be at risk for early- or delayed-onset hearing loss that can affect learning, communication, school performance, social interaction, and overall quality of life. Hearing loss as a late effect of therapy can occur after exposure to platinum compounds (cisplatin and carboplatin), cranial radiation, or both. These therapeutic exposures are most common in the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) and non-CNS solid tumors. Children are more susceptible to otologic toxic effects from platinum agents than are adults.[1,2]
Risk factors associated with hearing loss include the following:
- Younger age at treatment.
- Higher cumulative dose of platinum-based chemotherapy.
- Exposure to cisplatin combined with myeloablative carboplatin.[3]
- CNS tumors.
- Concomitant cranial radiation therapy.
Hearing loss and platinum-based therapy
Platinum-related sensorineural hearing loss develops as an acute toxicity that is generally irreversible and bilateral. Hearing loss manifests initially in the high frequencies and progresses to the speech frequencies with increasing cumulative exposure. The prevalence of hearing loss has varied widely per series and is based on platinum treatment (e.g., platinum type, dose, infusion duration); host factors (e.g., age, genetic susceptibility, renal function); receipt of additional ototoxic therapy (cranial irradiation, aminoglycosides, loop diuretics), and the grading criteria used to report prevalence and severity of hearing loss.[4]
- Cisplatin-induced hearing loss involving the speech frequencies (500–2000 Hz) usually occurs with cumulative doses that exceed 400 mg/m2 in pediatric patients.[3,5] Prolonging the duration of infusion or splitting the dose has been reported to reduce the risk of significant hearing loss. Exposure to cisplatin combined with myeloablative carboplatin significantly increases the risk of severe hearing loss.[3] Otologic toxic effects after platinum chemotherapy have been reported to worsen years after completion of therapy.[6] Radiation to the posterior fossa inclusive of the eighth cranial nerve (suggestive of damage to the cochlea at the end of therapy) increases the risk of late-onset hearing loss in survivors treated with cisplatin.[7]
- Carboplatin used in conventional (nonmyeloablative) dosing is typically not ototoxic.[8] However, delayed-onset hearing loss has been reported in specific populations. A single study of otologic toxic effects after non–stem cell transplant dosing of carboplatin for retinoblastoma reported that 8 of 175 children developed hearing loss. For seven of the eight children, the onset of the otologic toxic effects was delayed a median of 3.7 years.[9] Another study that evaluated audiological outcomes among 60 retinoblastoma survivors treated with nonmyeloablative systemic carboplatin and vincristine estimated a cumulative incidence of hearing loss of 20.3% at 10 years. Among the ten patients (17%) who developed sustained grade 3 or grade 4 hearing loss, nine were younger than 6 months at the start of chemotherapy. Younger age at the start of treatment was the only significant predictor of hearing loss; the cumulative incidence of hearing loss was 39% for patients younger than 6 months versus only 8.3% for patients aged 6 months and older.[10]
- The use of a carboplatin conditioning regimen for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation , particularly in combination with previous carboplatin or cisplatin therapy, may cause significant otologic toxic effects.[3,5]
Hearing loss and cranial radiation therapy
Cranial radiation therapy, when used as a single modality, may result in otologic toxic effects that may be gradual in onset, manifesting months to years after exposure. The threshold dose for auditory toxicity after radiation alone is in the range of 35 to 45 Gy for children. High-frequency sensorineural hearing loss is uncommon at cumulative radiation doses below 35 Gy. The exception is for patients with supratentorial tumors and ventriculoperitoneal shunts, in whom doses below 30 Gy may be associated with intermediate frequency (1,000–2,000 Hz) hearing loss. To reduce the risk of hearing loss, the average cochlear dose should not exceed 30 to 35 Gy, delivered over 6 weeks. Young patient age and presence of a brain tumor and/or hydrocephalus can increase susceptibility to hearing loss.
When used concomitantly with cisplatin, radiation therapy can substantially exacerbate the hearing loss associated with platinum chemotherapy.[11-14] In a report from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study (CCSS), 5-year survivors were at increased risk of problems with hearing sounds (relative risk [RR], 2.3), tinnitus (RR, 1.7), hearing loss requiring an aid (RR, 4.4), and hearing loss in one or both ears not corrected by a hearing aid (RR, 5.2), compared with siblings. Temporal lobe radiation (>30 Gy) and posterior fossa radiation (>50 Gy but also 30–49.9 Gy) were associated with these adverse outcomes. Exposure to platinum was associated with an increased risk of problems with hearing sounds (RR, 2.1), tinnitus (RR, 2.8), and hearing loss requiring an aid (RR, 4.1).[15]

Orbital and Optic
Orbital complications are common after radiation therapy for retinoblastoma and after total-body irradiation (TBI) and in children with head and neck sarcomas and CNS tumors.
For survivors of retinoblastoma, a small orbital volume may result from either enucleation or radiation therapy. Age younger than 1 year may increase risk, but this finding is not consistent across studies.[16,17] Progress has been made in the management of retinoblastoma, with better enucleation implants, intravenous chemoreduction, and intra-arterial chemotherapy in addition to thermotherapy, cryotherapy, and plaque radiation. Longer follow-up is needed to assess the impact on vision in patients undergoing these more contemporary treatment modalities.[16,18,19] Previously, tumors located near the macula and fovea were associated with an increased risk of complications leading to vision loss, although treatment of these tumors with foveal laser ablation has shown promise in preserving vision.[20-23]
(Refer to the PDQ summary on Retinoblastoma Treatment for more information on the treatment of retinoblastoma.)
Survivors of orbital rhabdomyosarcoma are at risk of dry eye, cataract, orbital hypoplasia, ptosis, retinopathy, keratoconjunctivitis, optic neuropathy, lid epithelioma, and impairment of vision after radiation therapy doses of 30 Gy to 65 Gy. The higher dose ranges (>50 Gy) are associated with lid epitheliomas, keratoconjunctivitis, lacrimal duct atrophy, and severe dry eye. Retinitis and optic neuropathy may also result from doses of 50 Gy to 65 Gy and even at lower total doses if the individual fraction size is higher than 2 Gy.[24] Cataracts are reported after lower doses of 10 Gy to 18 Gy.[25-27]
(Refer to the PDQ summary on Childhood Rhabdomyosarcoma Treatment for more information on the treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma in children.)
Optic pathway glioma and craniopharyngioma
Survivors of optic pathway glioma and craniopharyngioma are also at risk of visual complications, resulting in part from tumor proximity to the optic nerve.
Longitudinal follow-up (mean, 9 years) of 21 patients with optic pathway gliomas indicated that before treatment, 81% of patients had reduced visual acuity, 81% had optic nerve pallor, and all had reduced visual evoked potentials in one or both eyes. Treatment arrested acuity loss for 4 to 5 years. Visual acuity was stable or improved in 33% of patients at last follow-up; however, it declined on average. Visual acuity at follow-up was related to tumor volume at initial presentation.[28]
In a study of 25 patients diagnosed with craniopharyngioma, 67% had visual complications at a mean follow-up of 11 years.[29] A retrospective review of 30 children with craniopharyngioma revealed that 19 patients had vision loss before surgery; 21 patients had postsurgical vision loss. Preoperative vision loss was predicative of postoperative vision loss.[30]
Treatment-specific effects
Survivors of childhood cancer are at increased risk for ocular late effects related to both glucocorticoid and radiation exposure to the eye. The CCSS reported that survivors who were 5 or more years from diagnosis were at increased risk for cataracts (RR, 10.8), glaucoma (RR, 2.5), legal blindness (RR, 2.6), double vision (RR, 4.1), and dry eye (RR, 1.9), compared with siblings. The dose of radiation to the eye is significantly associated with risk of cataracts, legal blindness, double vision, and dry eye, in a dose-dependent manner. Risk of cataracts was associated with a radiation dose of 30 Gy or more to the posterior fossa and temporal lobe and treatment with prednisone. The cumulative incidence of cataracts, double vision, dry eye, and legal blindness continued to increase up to 20 years after diagnosis for those who received more than 5 Gy to the eye.[31] The 15-year cumulative incidence of cataract was 4.5% among 517 survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (median, 10.9 years from diagnosis), systematically evaluated by slit lamp examination. CNS irradiation was the only treatment-related risk factor identified for cataract development, which occurred in 11.1% of irradiated survivors, compared with 2.8% of those who were not irradiated.[32]
Ocular complications, such as cataracts and dry-eye syndrome, are common after stem cell transplantation in childhood. Compared with patients treated with busulfan or other chemotherapy, patients treated with single-dose or fractionated TBI are at increased risk of cataracts. Risk ranges from approximately 10% to 60% at 10 years posttreatment, depending on the total dose and fractionation, with a shorter latency period and more severe cataracts noted after single fraction and higher dose or dose-rate TBI.[33-36] Patients receiving TBI doses of less than 40 Gy have a less than 10% chance of developing severe cataracts.[36] Corticosteroids and graft-versus-host disease may further increase risk.[33,37] Epithelial superficial keratopathy has been shown to be more common if the patient was exposed to repeated high trough levels of cyclosporine A.[38]

Leonora Epstein and Jen Lewis have created this hilarious fictional Instagram account for Cher from 'Clueless.' The account features characters from the classic film such as Cher's lover Josh, played by Paul Rudd. There are also fake likes on the photos from different characters within the movie as well.
Anything you will post, Cher will post better as "she" uploads portraits of her beautiful mother and her Beverly hills mansion. Anyone with Cher on their Instagram wouldn't be able to compete with her celebrity pics.
The fictional Instagram account is a clever way of incorporating the past and the present. There are even jokes about how far technology has advanced when 'amber15' comments on Cher's "genius program" saying: "um yeah but its like a year old."
The account is a must-see if you're a fan of the movie.

.- The Archbishop of Leon, Mexico is calling on Catholics to dress modestly at Mass.
"If you have any respect for this place (a church), dress appropriately," Archbishop Jose Guadalupe Martin Rabago told reporters after Mass on July 24.
Criticism of the archbishop's comments came after local newspapers featured photos of posters at some parishes in Leon that said, "Respect God's house. Don't come dressed like this." The posters said women should not come to church dressed in miniskirts, sleeveless shirts, or low-cut blouses.
According to the newspaper Correo, the archbishop said women ought to know what they should wear and when.
"They know that for a wedding or a quinceanera they should dress one way, and for a trip to the beach they should dress another."
The archbishop also said men need to dress appropriately at Mass as well. "Some men show up at church dressed in way that is undignified, wearing shorts or sandals. The place they are in requires something else," he said.
Archbishop Martin Rabago said the media should not focus exclusively on what the Catholic Church says about how people should dress, as many evangelical churches require their congregations to come to church in a suit and tie.
He dismissed charges that his comments were misogynistic.
"This is not a misogynist attitude of any sort. I am simply asking for the dignity and decorum that this place calls for, that is all."

Droege's ATA Martial Arts employs small classes, a friendly environment, and expert instructors to teach self-defense skills from around the world. Derived from Israeli street-fighting techniques and currently taught to members of the Israeli army, Krav Maga preserves personal safety with a system of defensive tactics built on quick, instinctive strikes. In addition to training students ages16 and up to ward off attackers via realistic training scenarios, each class is a high-energy workout that builds strength and dispatches calories by swiftly knocking the fattening guns from their tiny hands. Classes are scheduled four days a week, and students can linger after class to hoist barbells in Droege's weight room.
With its plush leather couches and chairs, rich mahogany tables, antique-style lamps, and dark rugs embroidered with leaf patterns, the relaxation room at Invigo Day Spa resembles a cozy den. It's a place where guests waiting for a massage, facial, or body scrub go to unwind before their treatments and sip a cup of Octavia Tea Company's loose-leaf relaxation teas. Once visitors leave this calming room, they're led into the capable hands of one of the experienced massage therapists and aestheticians for further relaxation.
Using products from the all-natural Pevonia Botanica skincare line, the beauty experts perform 15 facials and peel treatments designed to treat issues ranging from dehydrated skin to clogged pores. They also shroud bodies in wraps infused with water lilies, green tea, mango, and aromatic Moor mud, and massage therapists knead tension from muscles using seven modalities. Each massage includes aromatherapy, hot towels, and at least three compliments about your hair.

As children, two brothers witnessed firsthand the violence that can destroy a home. As adults, the vowed that their daughters would never suffer the same fate. That?s why they founded Divas In Defense, a safe haven for girls and women to learn self-defense techniques. At their personal-safety classes and self-defense workshops, healthy self-esteem and mental strength develop naturally as women learn how to use their own bodies or those of any nearby mannequins to defend themselves. Trainers hone simple strikes and kicks at beginner classes, which evolve into ground techniques at intermediate classes and defense against armed attackers at advanced classes. Their Girls Can Fight Too! program welcomes students as young as 7 to learn how to stave off bullying, date violence, and interact appropriately online, among other skills.
In 1992, Atlanta Kick opened as a karate dojo, teaching martial arts with an emphasis on respect, physical fitness, and discipline. By 2000, the certified trainers at Atlanta Kick had punched through the wooden planks blocking them from bringing their studio to the next level of fitness by adding boot camps. Now, 13 years later, Atlanta Kick is bigger and stronger than ever. They still teach karate classes for children and adults, but they've added a slew of hard-hitting fitness classes to keep their boot camps company, including CrossFit, self-defense, and kickboxing. Certified trainers help motivate clients to blast through workout plateaus.

text: If you consume alot of sodium, but drink tons of water, will this hinder my weight loss efforts. Im young so I dont believe I retain sodium as some older people would. I was just curious about this because it seems that I can only stick to a diet plan that contains Lean Cuisine's and 0 point soups. And I know that they both contain alot of sodium. The only veggies I eat seem to be the can ones, and frozen ones. There never they fresh ones because I just dont have the time for that. This is a diet plan I can stick with, I just dont want to be doing it for nothing because of all this sodium.

Realization (linguistics)
Realisation is a subtask of Natural language generation, which involves creating an actual text in a human language (English, French, etc.) from a syntactic representation. There are a number of software packages available for realisation, most of which have been developed by academic research groups in NLG.
For example, the following Java code causes the simplenlg system[2] [1] to print out the text The women do not smoke.:
NPPhraseSpec subject = nlgFactory.createNounPhrase("the", "woman"); subject.setPlural(true); SPhraseSpec sentence = nlgFactory.createClause(subject, "smoke"); sentence.setFeature(Feature.NEGATED, true); System.out.println(realiser.realiseSentence(sentence));
In this example, the computer program has specified the linguistic constituents of the sentence (verb, subject), and also linguistic features (plural subject, negated), and from this information the realiser has constructed the actual sentence.
Realisation involves three kinds of processing:
Syntactic realisation: Using grammatical knowledge to choose inflections, add function words and also to decide the order of components. For example, in English the subject usually precedes the verb, and the negated form of smoke is do not smoke.
Morphological realisation: Computing inflected forms, for example the plural form of woman is women (not womans).
Orthographic realisation: Dealing with casing, punctuation, and formatting. For example capitalising The because it is the first word of the sentence.
The above examples are very basic, most realisers are capable of considerably more complex processing.
A number of realisers have been developed over the past 20 years. These systems differ in terms of complexity and sophistication of their processing, robustness in dealing with unusual cases, and whether they are accessed programmatically via an API or whether they take a textual representation of a syntactic structure as their input.
There are also major differences in pragmatic factors such as documentation, support, licensing terms, speed and memory usage, etc.
It is not possible to describe all realisers here, but a few of the emerging areas are:
- Simplenlg [3]: a document realizing engine with an api which intended to be simple to learn and use, focused on limiting scope to only finding the surface area of a document.
- KPML [4]: this is the oldest realiser, which has been under development under different guises since the 1980s. It comes with grammars for ten different languages.
- FUF/SURGE [5]: a realiser which was widely used in the 1990s, and is still used in some projects today
- OpenCCG [6]: an open-source realiser which has a number of nice features, such as the ability to use statistical language models to make realisation decisions.

"Easy to use the site and delivery was well ahead of expected timeline. I did replace the studio picture with one of my own but it was well rendered by Tiny Prints. Doing it again and listening to wife's advice, I would omit the "Thank You" and make the card more generic for multiple occasion usage in addition to simply thanks."
"Loved this style of card! I used as a thank you note, so the size of the card worked perfectly. The paper was of excellent quality. Highly recommend this product."
"My son recently completed his Eagle Project and wanted to thank everyone who contributed to the success of his project. He picked the best pictures of the project and put them on the postcard. The final project was beautiful. This was an inexpensive way to thank everyone and for them to see how their contributions were spent."
"I absolutely love these cards--my very favorite thank you cards to use. The high paper quality, contemporary design, and accent color (I chose orange), along with my name (only placed my first name after the words "thank you" on the card) make it special. I love the self-addressed envelopes that match it (I think it's such a nice touch to have personalized envelopes as well). I ordered both the cards and envelopes a second time, and will continue to order more as I run out. Great value!"
"Heavy, smooth paper, beautiful creamy, soft envelopes. We used a pic with lower resolution and the quality was still wonderful. Highly recommend."
